Today we toured To Horsey, Sea Palling and Hickling Broad.
We travelled from Clippesby via Thurne to West Somerton.
We continued to Horsey where we stopped for lunch at Horsey Windpump on the edge of Horsey Mere.

We continued on to Waxham Barn where we stopped for a coffee and a cake, and to visit the barn.

Steve last visited Sea Palling many years ago during his pre teen years, when he spent considerable time on the beach with bucket and spade! It was interesting to contrast the childhood memories with the actual visit and perspective many years later as an adult. So much seems different when you are grown up!
We continued to Hickling where we stopped to visit and walk around the Nature Reserve. We loved the sense of peace and tranquility – it felt as though you were miles from anywhere…

We returned home via Potter Heigham and Thurne – by now a very familiar leg of our touring.
